● Flame of infrared burner might be visible in shaded area.

● After burner is lit, it should feel warm in 5-10 seconds and color of the ceramic plate turns red in approximately 2-3

minutes.

Flare-ups

“Flare-ups” sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot heat distribution plate or burners and ignite. Some

flaring is normal and desirable as it helps impart the unique flavors associated with grilled foods. Controlling the intensity of

the flare-ups is necessary, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods and to prevent the possibility of

accidental fire.

WARNING:

Always monitor the grill closely when cooking and turn the flame level down to LOW or OFF if flare-ups intensify.

Shutting Off Burners

Always turn the valve knob(s) clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position, and then press and turn

it to ‘’OFF’’. Never force

●

The new regulators are equipped with a safety device that restricts the gas flow in the event of a gas leek. However,

unsafe practices of grill operation could activate the safety device without having a gas leak.

●

A sudden shut off of the gas flow typically occurs if you open the LP tank valve rapidly, or if one or more of the

burner control knobs is in an open position when opening the LP tank valve.

●

This procedure effective with all LP Tank sizes as well as Natural Gas. When performing the procedure on a Natural

Gas model, simply substitute "Natural Gas valve" for "LP Tank
